PX-Web Data by API (GET)

Description

A function to read PX-Web data into R via API using GET.

Usage

get_api_data(
  url,
  return_dataset = NULL,
  make_na_status = TRUE,
  verbose_print = FALSE,
  use_ensure_json_stat2 = "auto"
)

get_api_data_1(..., return_dataset = 1)

get_api_data_2(..., return_dataset = 2)

get_api_data_12(..., return_dataset = 12)

Arguments

url	A PxWeb API URL to data.
return_dataset	Possible non-NULL values are 1, 2 and 12. Then a single data set is returned as a data frame.
make_na_status	When TRUE and when dataPackage is "rjstat" and when missing entries in value, the function tries to add an additional variable, named NAstatus, with status codes. An explanation of these status codes is provided in the note part of the comment attribute, i.e. what you get with note(). See the bottom example.
verbose_print	When TRUE, printing to console
use_ensure_json_stat2	TRUE, FALSE, or "auto" (default). If "auto", the URL is modified by ensure_json_stat2() only when "/v2/" is detected in the URL.
...	Additional arguments passed to get_api_data().

Value

A data frame, or a list of data frames, depending on the input and parameters.

Examples

url <- paste0(
  "https://data.ssb.no/api/pxwebapi/v2/tables/03013/data?lang=en",
  "&valueCodes[Konsumgrp]=??",
  "&valueCodes[ContentsCode]=KpiIndMnd",
  "&valueCodes[Tid]=top(2)"
)
  
get_api_data_2(url)
